What's your Goal in iRacing?

Post by Righteous »

Having done a bit of reading through the different forums I am curious about what goals people have for iRacing?

Due to the fact that everyone will eventually be placed in races with similarly skilled people, where would you like that place to be? If it were a couple of years back when I had all the time in the world to sim race, I probably would have aimed for the top but seeing that I don't have that luxury anymore, I think I will be happy just to enjoy the racing.

The only thing I don't want is to be limited by my licence. I will do all that I can to make sure that my licence allows me to race in whatever car I feel like.

Same deal here. I just want to get to a level where I can race what I want to race.

Same, I just want to be high enough in rating to get a nice variety of cars and have fun racing, like I've always done really.

Main thing for me is having fun, dont wanna pay money each month for something i dont enjoy. But at the same time wanna have my license high enought that I can race in whatever I want.

If I end up getting iRacing my goal would be to run at the highest level. I'm very competitive in everything I do, especially racing. Even if I do go in there to have fun, I'd end up wanting to be the fastest.. it's just the way I am :/
in saying that though, when I'm up the front I'm having the most fun, so I guess it's a bit of both :)

If I was really honest with myself I would say that I want to be the fastest but it ain't going to happen. Having said that, I would still like to be known as one of the faster guys. I enjoy winning too, but I have convinced myself that that's not all I need to have fun. Otherwise I won't get any enjoyment out of it. :)

I think in iRAcing you'll be convinced of that quickly. Some guys here are already in FTL mode (faster-than-light).
Surprise, no sig. Now there is. Or is there?

I'd like to just slowly progress up the various series, aiming to do as well as I can but not like some who will run one race with one win each week just to be at the top of the ladder. I'll take the good races with the bad and let it even itself out.
